Slow Birding

Bag om Slow Birding

Many birders travel far and wide to popular birding destinations to catch sight of rare or “exotic” birds. In SLOW BIRDING, evolutionary biologist' Joan E. Strassmann' introduces readers to the joys of birdwatching right where they are. In this inspiring guide to the art of birdwatching, Strassmann tells colourful stories of the most common birds to be found in the United States—birds we often see but might not have considered deeply before. For example, northern cardinals thrive in the city, where they are free from predators. White brows on a male white-throated sparrow indicate that he is likely to be a philanderer. This essential guide to the fascinating world of common, everyday birds features: · detailed portraits of individual bird species and the scientists who have discovered and observed them · advice and guidance on what to look for when birdwatching, so that you can uncover clues to the reasons behind specific bird behaviour · bird-focused activities that will open your eyes more to the fascinating world of birds       SLOW BIRDING is the perfect guide for the birdwatcher looking to appreciate the beauty of the birds right in their own garden, observing keenly how their behaviour change from day to day and season to season.
